We did return home and this week has been little more than a blur. The gear is stacked in the living room awaiting a quick cleanup and being put away. Some of the clothes are put away. . . Susan did most of the laundry in Moab before we left, so there is little to do there. We will now begin to work on our film notes, which is the first step before film processing starts. JB is already hauling distilled water, and if things go as usual, film processing should start in 2-3 weeks. . . you never get in a rush to process film!
Here are a few stats from this year’s adventure;
DAYS ON THE ROAD TOTAL: 31
DAYS IN BRYCE CANYON NP: 4
DAYS IN SPRINGDALE, UT: 15
DAYS IN MOAB, UT: 7
NUMBER OF DAYS PHOTOGRAPHING: 20
SUSAN 4X10 FILM: 93
SUSAN 8X20 FILM: 18
JB 8X10 FILM: 103
JB 11X14 FILM: 21
TOTAL MILES DRIVEN: 3,641
There have been a few questions about when will finished photographs be seen. . . that is a good question for sure. It will take a month, at the least, to process, sort, file and proof the negatives. Then we will begin to sort through what we have and the process of printing will begin. This usually takes 2-3 additional months, since we never get in any rush. It takes time to think things through. . . it is a very intense process of creativity and may take some time for an image to mature. . . some photographs take years to ripen, mature and stabilize into the finished image. We invite everyone to follow us on our web site, our BLOG and FaceBook. We have also put the entire From the Road 2014 e-mail collection on our web site for those that were not on the mailing list. You can download the entire set in PDF format here;
